I've been to Nunavik again. Back to Kangirsuk for 2 weeks. This was my first arctic visit in winter and I was worried that I wouldn't connect to the landscape as strongly now that the rich tundra that I love so much was covered in snow. I was wrong. It's just as spectacular in the winter. The ever-present wind really packs down the snow so it's very hard and then sculpts it into beautiful abstract forms and textures which is enhanced by the amazing light. Here are some images I took while on a very cold walk (with wind chill factor it felt like -40C...that's the same in Farenheit!) on a beautiful sunny day.
I am an artist who creates sculptural objects, combining materials such as paper, thread, beeswax, metal, and natural objects. I also give creativity workshops in Hudson, Quebec. Art vein vessel is a place where I share my work, my creative activities, and the little things that inspire me.
